It's more attainable than a MacBook, but with my current paltry income, not for a while.

If I ever was to consider getting one, I would get the wifi only one.

I think it has tons of potential. But like the iPhone I will probably wait until the version 2 refurbs are going for $299.

I'm thinking refurb, too, unless there is a miracle and I get full-time employment.

Should of been called MegaPod because that's what it is. I don't see it as something "new and revolutionary". It's an iPod on steroids.

Sorry Michael, I didn't mean to reply to you.

Now I understand why it's not in the Apple Store:

This device has not yet been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. This device is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.

Well, the iPod itself wasn't revolutionary. It simply took mp3 players to a whole new level. This iPad is (will be) much more than an iPod will ever be.

Truly horrible name.
The whole "i-Whatever" naming scheme is played out.

I'm impressed that they were able to get those price points.
